Bare Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation Fairly Light

I am really impressed with Bare Mineral foundation. I never used foundations before b/c I didn't like look or feel of foundations. I am 35 y.o. Asian woman and started to notice few sun spots and sun damage to my skin so I wanted something that would last all day since putting on moisturizer in the morning doesn't work all day. I was about to order Bare minerals makeup through their BM website but did not like automatic enrollment where they send you makeup every two months and charge you automatice billing. So I checked out Amazon and thankfully they had it. BTW, I really like Amazon store they have awesome prices and so convient. Also, buying thru amazon, the same product was slightly cheaper.
I watched the DVD and I put the foundation on using their brush, I used "warmth" color on my cheeks, and used the Veil for shine control. I used Tan color because of my asin skin color and plus I have summer tan. I am Very Very pleased with my look. First it looks natural, it really brings out the warmth tone of my skin, and excellent shine control. 2nd, it does not feel like I have makeup on at all. It really enhanced my complexion, color, and great skin. I went for a walk outside in the afternoon during summer, foundation was still on very well and provided excellent sun coverage. My frekles did not pop out. Also, foundation did not fall on the lines of face, I felt I looked younger and radiant. It allowed my eye makeup and eye brow makeup to go on easier and smoother.

I would recommend putting on moisturizer prior to foundation. But wait few minutes before putting on foundation after moisurizing. I use Olay complete moisturizer for sensitive skin with SPF15.

Now I will be using BM foundation daily. It is fun to put it on!

I cannot stand the feel of liquid makeup but tolerated it for years. I never found any that had the right color and/or coverage, lasting wear, etc. Finally, after watching BE on QVC for years decided to give it a try. It is the BEST ever! I couldn't believe it! Where I want a bit more coverage, such as my dark circles or larger pores around my nose area, I apply some foundation with my finger then I use the swirl, tap, and buff method over that and finish with the Mineral Veil powder. It lasts beyond an entire work day for me! If you do perspire it will become whitish where it gets wet but just dab with a cloth or paper towel and it immediately goes back to perfect! No streaks etc. as long as you pat over it. In the fall and winter I really don't have to worry about that. Anyway if you've been on the fence just give it a try. I know no one product works for every person but for me this has been the answer! The prices on QVC are terrific and you can get auto delivery as well. They also have special kits that are not available anywhere else as well as easy pay on many of them. I don't work for QVC, just a very satisfied customer!

wow at this price, you wont find a better deal than amazon. This item will last a while, so you wont need to reorder anytime soon

Best makeup product I have ever used! I have used Bare Minerals for the last four years and will not use anything else. I am a mature skin type, when applied I am always pleased with my results.

I have used this stuff for 2 years thinking its "good" for my skin! only to find out after some research (finding the ingredients was a task in itself), that it contains a lead byproduct that irritates and causes breakouts! how annoying!!! they claim its "natural" and free of chemicals, bull!!!! there are other mineral make-ups out there that do not contain bismuth oxychloride. [...]. If you have problem/blemished skin, i would avoid this bismuth oxychloride, as it states it specifically "can" cause break-outs. uggg....
